Hi, Not sure which part to blame - whether it is Apache, mod_passenger or a browser - but my websocket handshake gets corrupted by apache sending it using chunked encoding.
Following is the response packet that indicates switching to websocket: HTTP/1.1 101 Switching Protocols Date: Thu, 10 Apr 2014 15:21:28 GMT Server: Apache/2.2.15 (CentOS) Upgrade: websocket Connection: Upgrade Sec-WebSocket-Accept: S7wgnmtVSahQDCifkYwFlQajWcI= X-Powered-By: Phusion Passenger 4.0.41 Status: 101 Switching Protocols Transfer-Encoding: chunked Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 5 ..1:: The problem is that right after that the server software (nodejs running via mod_passenger) sends actual websocket frame but apache encodes it using chunked encoding (prepends it with chunk length - the number 5 in my example). Since the first byte of websocket frame is supposed to be frame opcode the chunk length is taken by browser (tested with Chrome) as this opcode and whole websocket is corrupted. What's wrong? Is this apache's fault? I can see other webservers are not using chunked encoding when connection gets upgraded to websocket... Any way around the problem?
